Character reset after updates!

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

My Six Launcher recently updated itself today. Once it had finished I logged into a server to find my character had been reset (back to asking me to selected my gender). The reason I believe this is attached to the update is for a few reasons:

1/ It's happened before and the last time was also after Six Launcher updated.

2/ I am absolutely certain I did not die during the logout period. I was completely secluded inside a bush, prone, on a quiet server, at night with no zeds nearby.

3/ The servers I am on are definitely hive server as I have played on them before.

So is this normal? Once a server updates its beta patch or the Six Launcher updates does everyone's character get reset? I'm pretty new to DayZ so I might be missing something. Let me know if I need to post any additional information.

Thanks for any help/info!

Well the game is in alpha and still bugged out to the shit and back so who knows ! ^__^

You may have received the " worst case scenario " after a server update perhaps.. only a guess but i know its happened to others

Yeah I'm hoping it's just a bug or something. But I'm worried; is this going to happen every time Six Launcher updates? If so I really want to find a fix for this.

I'm wondering what I can do on my end to fix it. But if my character is saved on the hive then it shouldn't really have anything to do with me.

Rebooted my server a bit ago (didnt make any changes to files or make any updates, just a simple reboot) and now my group's camp and vehicles are all gone.

Rebooted again thinking it was just a bad reboot and still everything gone but the server time went from 10PM (night) EST to 12:30PM (day) without any changes being made to the server files.

Actually, a weird fix that I've found is to die on the "new" character. When you respawn you go back to the character that was "deleted".

Make sure you run the latest Beta and that the server you want to play on also have the latest Beta.
